EU rules that gay Africans are entitled to asylumBruno Waterfield By Bruno Waterfield, Brussels1:35PM GMT 07 Nov 2013The fear of imprisonment for homosexuality in African countries is grounds for asylum in the European Union, Europe's highest court has ruled.According to the European Court of Justice, a gay refugee from a country where people are jailed for being homosexual does qualify as a persecuted group eligible for asylum.The court's ruling concerned three homosexual men from Sierra Leone, Uganda and Senegal who had sought asylum in Holland, but is binding for all EU countries, including Britain."Homosexual acts are a criminal offence in those three countries and may lead to serious punishment, from heavy fines to life imprisonment in certain cases," the ECJ ruled."A term of imprisonment which accompanies a legislative provision which punishes homosexual acts may constitute an act of persecution per se, provided that it is actually applied."{{snip}}Next year, following another Dutch case, the EU courts are expected to rule on a much more difficult matter: how national asylum authorities should verify a person's claim that they are homosexual.

It's sort of like how we're told that if someone identifies themselves as a woman then, voila, they're a woman.

It would be one thing if they were all literally homosexuals (less damage to the gene pool that way), but they'll just end up attracting pretenders who see it as an easy way to get legal admission to the foolish, suicidal West.
